Fire is a permanent threat to life and property. There-

fore, immediate response to a ﬁ re is imperative. The

main objective of the ﬁ re detection control panel Series

BC216 is to alarm and to react in time and, conse-

quently, save lives and protect property. For decades

LST have focused their aims to undertaking unrivaled

efforts in order to realize new innovations in the security

area. Research, development and production are loca-

ted within LST premises, thus guaranteeing ﬂ exible and

reliable individual solutions.

Using a 32-bit multiprocessor system, the ﬁ re detection

control panel Series BC216 ensures topmost efﬁ ciency

and speed – prerequisites for saving lives and minimi-

zing damage to property.

Description

The BCnet Sectional Control Panel/Extension BCE216-

3LG allows for the extension of a ﬁ re detection control

panel BCnet216 by two ADM loops. The extension is in-

tegrated into the ﬁ re detection control panel BCnet216

by installing it in a BCnet sectional control panel BC216-

2 or BC216-3 and connecting it to the GSSnet cabling

via the GSSnet interface on the extension.

The 24V supply of the BCnet Sectional Control Panel/Ex-

tension BCE216-3LG is powered from the BCnet sectio-

nal control panel in whose cabinet it has been installed;

it does not have a power supply or battery charger of

its own. The extension is designed as compact unit and

mounted on a pivoting sheet steel carrier.

The loop processing functions of the BCE216-3LG fully

correspond to the functions of a BCnet Sectional Con-

trol Panel BC216-2 equipped with two Loop Interfaces

LIF64-1.

The ADM loop principle offers intelligent analogue ring-

bus technology with bi-directional data transfer. Each

loop provides for the software-aided administration of

up to 198 physical address points in a maximum of 128

detector zones.

Easy parameterisation by means of PC software en-

ables you to optimally adapt the control panel to your

individual requirements.

Clear Concept

The BCnet Sectional Control Panel/Extension

BCE216-3LG extends a BCnet sectional control panel

BC216-2 or BC216-3, respectively, by two ADM loops.

It provides the following features:

• Detectors and modules in ADM loop technology can

be connected to each Loop Interface LIF64-1. Depen-

ding on the parameterisation, either the Apollo/Disco-

very protocol or the System Sensor/200 protocol is

used to achieve bi-directional data transfer.

• Logical combinations of detectors and detector zo-

nes for the activation of external controls and alar-

ming devices facilitate maximum ﬂ exibility. Thus, no

additional expenses arise for external relays, logic

gates or timers. Thanks to the wide range of parame-

terisation possibilities, individual requirements even

under the most difﬁ cult ambient conditions can be

combined into a reasonable ﬁ re protection strategy.

• By integrating input and output modules on any positi-

on in the loop you can realize enablements or disable-

ments as well as control tasks in your system without

having to care for additional wires.

• The free combination of detectors and modules into

logic sectors allows for the joint operation of deﬁ ned

parts of the system even beyond the limits of loops

or sectional control panels.

• The use of unshielded loop cables allows for cost-

saving and uncomplicated installation as well as for

the possibility of reusing the existing cabling.

• At a possible breakdown of the central processing

unit which is integrated on the extension, the diver-

siﬁ ed redundancy concept ensures secure alarm re-

cognition.

• The parameter data can be created by means of the

PC software PARSOFT and loaded into the control pa-

nel in a comfortable way. Thus, a quick and efﬁ cient

transfer of the system conﬁ guration into the control

panel is guaranteed.

• AUTO setup facilitates parameterisation when the

control panel is commissioned or expanded and thus

helps to save time.

The BCnet Sectional Control Panel/Extension

BCE216-3LG is suitable for later installation in the wall

mount cabinet.

Owing to the compact design, a maximum of four loops

can be centralized in one single place. The required bat-

teries are accommodated in the wall mount cabinet or

in an external auxiliary case. Series BC216 thus stands

for modularity and easy expansion.

This product complies with all relevant standards of

EN 54 and is VdS-certiﬁ ed. In addition, the product also

holds several country-speciﬁ c approvals and certiﬁ ca-

tes. LST‘s high quality level is secured by a permanent-

ly monitored quality management system certiﬁ ed by

ISO 9001.

Permanent Connection

By means of a BCnet Sectional Control Panel/Extension

BCE216-3LG, a Fire Detection Control Panel BC216-2

or BC216-3, respectively, can be extended by two

loops. In one case, you thus have up to four loops at

your disposal. In addition, a variety of peripheral de-

vices can be connected to this device:

• Fire brigade key safe

• Fire brigade control unit

• Acoustic and optical signaling devices

• External protocol printer

• Remote display and operating panels

• Remote indication unit

• Actuations

• Electronic monitoring system

• Transmitting device for the actuation of pagers via

ESPA protocol

• Modules for remote parameterisation and remote

maintenance via computer newtork, modem or GSM

connection

• Transmitter module for the transmission of messages

via SMS or e-mail

– and much more.

The ﬁ re detection control panel BCnet216 opens up ma-

nifold possibilities for the realization of speciﬁ c requests

of ﬁ re detection, especially in spacious buildings, high-

rise buildings or wide-stretched areas.

The decentralized security network that has been crea-

ted by BCnet216 offers increased security and reduces

the total expenses due to a much lower cabling volume.

The consistent ring-shaped cabling guarantees commu-

nication between the sectional control panels even in

the event of a line fault.

A sectional control panel of the BCnet216 is parame-

terised as main operating unit for the administration of

the GSSnet, all other members can be equipped with or

without a display and operating unit.

The system is designed modularly and can be gradually

expanded according to future demands. The maximum

size of a BCnet216 comprises 127 network members,

9700 detector zones, 9700 actuations, 999 alarming

devices, 99 transmitting devices as well as 199 logic

sectors. Different interfaces are available for the con-

nection of external information devices, e.g., a facility

management system or a remote maintenance sys-

tem.

Cabling of the detectors is required only between two

neighboring sectional control panels. This clear and

ﬂ exible arrangement of the sectional control panel cre-

ates a powerful network. In this way, most economical

cabling and thus efﬁ cient use of the installation expen-

ses is guaranteed. Larger distances between individual

sectional control panels can be bridged through the use

of optical ﬁ ber modems or long distance modems.

The entire virtual control panel BCnet216 provides for

the monitoring in mid-sized and large systems, applying

the same technology and the same software tools as

with the single control panel BC216-1. This guarantees

a minimum of training and expansion costs as well as

expenses of the user and thus guarantees the optimal

use of resources during the usable life of the building.

BCnet sectional control panels are available in wall

mount cabinets, as 19“ compact version and in 19“

slide-in technology.

Distributed Intelligence in the GSSnet

If required, the BCnet216 can be easily expanded to

an extinguishing control panel LCnet216 according to

EN 12094-1. The panel can control up to 127 ﬂ ooding

zones in a maximum of 127 extinguishing systems.

The function of the extinguishing control panel is fully in-

tegrated into the ﬁ re detection control panel BCnet216,

a combined operation is therefore possible.

The LCnet216 is certiﬁ ed to EN 54-2, EN 54-4,

EN 12094-1 and VdS as a pure extinguishing control

panel and as a combined ﬁ re detection and extinguis-

hing control panel.

Optionally, the LCnet216 can be implemented with full

hardware redundancy.
